I need a warm coat, must have a hood nd preferably belted or cinched in at the waist. Would rather not in grey/black. Am a size 10/12.

Also, must be able to buy online. I would make my post all pleading and nice but I feel so utterly awful that I can't be arsed.
Please help, spending money is the only thing that can heal me right now.

I will look.

Are you sure about a hood?

tethersjinglebellend · 02/01/2010 13:15

Do you mean this sort of thing, or more of a woollen coat style?

tethersjinglebellend · 02/01/2010 13:22

this?

tethersjinglebellend · 02/01/2010 13:26

no hood but a lot nicer...

itsmeolord · 02/01/2010 16:22

Sorry, would have replied sooner but the brandy sent me off to sleep.

I think the parka looks a bit thin? Am looking for something like my dp; thick,warm and fairly cheap. I foundthis
and love it but its got no hood.

Hmmm...

There's this, this or this but they're black... this if you're a size 8... this, which is my favourite.... or this if you're absolutely minted

itsmeolord · 02/01/2010 17:26

mmmmm, I love the juicy one, I can't get it till end of Jan though so not really practical when its cold now.

La redoute I forgot all about, you are a genious, I think I am going to go for it.

LOL sorry at OP

EdgarAleNPie · 02/01/2010 18:44

i really like the fatface one tethersend

of course, size 8 is rather tighter a fit than i would like....

lemsip for OP

EdgarAleNPie · 02/01/2010 18:52

ooh the plum look v. different on ebay i like it less.

tethersend · 02/01/2010 19:03

Eww, that looks horrible, Edgar. Think carefully.

itsmeolord · 02/01/2010 21:32

la redoute cot is available in a size 28 only. I suppose I could always use it as a duvet......

So I am still ill and still coatless. Any other suggestions welcome.
Many thanks for well wishes, much appreciated.

Flight - your distinct lack of sympathy has been noted.

You can never trust the French.

What colour were you going for?

FairMidden · 02/01/2010 21:45

bargainous!

or

cosy but a bit bleak

or

like this one

FairMidden · 02/01/2010 21:48

OK. I hope you loathe their black greyishness ... the last one's out of stock - sorry!

tethersend · 02/01/2010 21:52

any good? or clutching at straws?

itsmeolord · 02/01/2010 22:00

am filled with loathing

I think I like this its the colour but it looks abit short.

I want something I can wear with long line tops and not look cut in half.

Tethersend, your tenacity is amazing, you have been helping me all day!

OP posts:
FairMidden · 02/01/2010 22:03

Don't laugh, it meets your criteria!

FairMidden · 02/01/2010 22:10

Dredging a bit now

It's the hood, it's killing me.

tethersend · 02/01/2010 22:10

Some would say tenacity, others would say an empty meaningless void of an existence. Same difference really.

I like the red one

tethersend · 02/01/2010 22:17

This is longer though...
